A basic for the littlest ones at home: the bandana. It’s becoming more and more common to see children wearing bandanas instead of bibs.
It has become another accessory in a little one’s outfit, and they look great in them while staying dry when they start drooling because their teeth are starting to come in, poor things.
You can make it from different fabrics: woven fabric, knit fabric, combined with terry cloth, fleece for winter, or muslin for summer.
In this tutorial, we show you how to sew one with snap closures, but you could also use Velcro as a closure (here we show you 4 tricks for sewing Velcro)
If you’re new to sewing, you’ll see that it’s great practice for sewing curves and you won’t have any trouble.
Download the PDF pattern here. Remember to print it at 100% scale so it comes out the correct size, and check the measurement box.
If you’re expecting a baby’s arrival, here I have a post you might like that can help give you sewing ideas. You’ll see that we have lots of them in Lulu Ferris :)
The beautiful tiger fabric we used, along with the mustard terry cloth, is from I Love Kutchi
